Being French, I cannot cope with the idea of having fish and veg for breakfast.

There is basically two things I can have for breakfast then:

rice cakes + homemade chocolate spreadpuffed rice +almond milk

Unfortunately, I like diversity...

Does anyone have a suggestion for a more "traditionnal" compliant breakfast?

Thank you.

Most of the world today eats grains, sugars, and dairy for breakfast; with little to no meat,fish, beans, or vegetables at breakfast time. Most people on this website (especially O's!!!!) have had to re-think breakfast, and learn to eat "lunch and dinner foods" at breakfast time.

It's all down to how important your health is to you, eventually people reaslise they have to change or they get more sick, more tired and more grumpy.

once you make the effort to change it becomes fairly easy.

if for example you don't like fish.... if it is put in front of you and you add lemon juice and eat a small bit of the fish before anything else it a customises you taste buds and from then on they will taste fine. it's all about just getting on with it in my opinion.

If however you need or love drama then it can become dram lol

scrambled eggs or boiled eggs...then I can have bifidus yogi's nature or with fruits in but without any sugar and no apples at all !!! Or some quark cheese & fruit topicsYou might go for a typical swiss muessli with oat brans-fruits and ??)...all what is ok on top of your foodlists ;) ;D puffed rice or quinoa or other seeds and I also guess glutenfree cereales ??)but ok oats do also contain some gluten and gliadin if I remember it well :-/ spelt might be another option.... :D

I just made some pancakes using rice flour, ground flax seeds, ground almonds, eggs, oil, lime juice and baking soda. Topped with maple syrup or fruit syrup, they are great...

If you can have yogurt, go for a serving of plain full fat yogurt with berries and nuts.

A couple hot breakfast ideas we frequently eat in our home are cooked amaranth or cooked rice cereal (brown rice grits). I stir in either my own homemade almond, rice, or walnut milk with agave syrup or honey (maple syrup would be compliant for you) and then we all add our own compliant raw nuts and/or berries.

Trust me, you can find ways to incorporate more variety into your breakfasts. I have to prepare meals for 3 blood types, varying secretor statuses, and multiple genotypes and I am successfully finding a way to make it work and keep my family healthy (for the most part).

I'm dying for a good compliant pancake recipe...Are they American pancakes or like the French crepes?

I don't measure carefully when I make pancakes and rarely make them exactly the same due to different flour possibilities or who is going to be eating them. DD likes a thicker cake and I like a thin one - although these hold together better when a little thicker - making them easier to turn.Here is a starting point, though.

Also, this makes American pancakes, but if you add water to make a runny batter, you can probably make crepes - although they may not hold together well enough to turn...

Grease (using ghee or ?) the griddle and start heating it.Mix dry ingredients in one bowl.Mix wet ingredients in another bowl.When the griddle is hot (water drops dance), start putting the batter on to make cakes the desired size. Cook on one side until top of edges are cooking, then flip over for a couple of minutes to finish cooking.
